HIPSTER RUNOFF is a place for discussion. HIPSTER RUNOFF is a place for commenting. HIPSTER RUNOFF is a for some of the most important social commentary in the world. HIPSTER RUNOFF is a place for progressive ideas. HIPSTER RUNOFF is a place for cmmntrs to ‘talk like Carles.’ HIPSTER RUNOFF is a place for rash reactions. HIPSTER RUNOFF is a place 2 express urself after Carles expresses himself. Commenting is an opportunity for you to align your personal brand with a single post. Each post a meaningful parcel of information. PART OF A BLOG POST NEVER DIES (therefore PART OF UR CMMNT NVR DIES). Thought yall might appreciate this info. Kinda weird how sometimes I spend 2 minutes on a post (basically sharting out a low level alt meme), and it gets more cmmnts than ‘a hi level meme/post that I spent time compiling.’
UPDATE: LINKS WORK NOW. SORRY YALL. DON’T ‘GET’ HTML.

After processing this information, it is clear that my most valuable posts are about ___________. It will be important for me to post about ________ at least once a week, in order to generate discussion/ad impressions. I should cut back on posts about _________ because no1 cares. It’s clear that ______ is a popular topic/gimmick that needs more attention. I will explore it more in 2k9. When a post gets __+ comments, that means it is relevant commentary on a modern issue. Or it means that I posted a picture of __________ (human body part). Whenever I blog about ________, you can tell that people from ________ (city) get defensive and feel like they have to justify their existences. Glad they found my blog from a local newspaper/blog who ‘thought my post was an unfounded outrage.’ People also like to gawk at pictures from events like ________. I hope I get to attend one some day. Overall it was a good 2k8. Hopefully I can keep ‘producing results’ by blogging more about ________ and less about _________. Carles reads (all/none/some) of your comments, so he definitely appreciates ur feedback. Every comment is a love note. Do U <3 HRO?

HRO became mainstream LAST YEAR. I like to check back every month or so and see what’s happening around here but its just a bunch of entry level alts bickering. AGAIN.

your blog is more than just tits. trust me, i am a female and i enjoy your commentary. i understand that you are not doing this to “get laid” like some of your readers accuse you of trying to do. this blog, your perspective, the ideas and observations, is perfect. its like a college level comparative studies discussion course with an ex-scenester/hipster/anything aging prof that is way too relaxed. anyway, take a break if you need. do what you have to do. i’ll still be here.

i posted cmmnts on a dozen of those! i really starting to feel like we are “building something” “together” and i personally am “doing” my “part.” Carles, you make me feel like the song by the pink floyds, another brick in the wall, but in a good way!
